Cael has no family members as unqualified for any job as JayPa.

As a long time Bassett fan and follower, I have almost surprised myself here, but I have to lean Forrest. His positional awareness, athleticism and speed remind me of DT, not to mention his spider like lean frame that will only fill in out through time. Despite his thin build, strength is not a problem for him against much stronger builds. I honestly don't know how high his ceiling could be, it seems limitless.

PS - The only really sane answer to the question is BOTH!

I’ve been contemplating this thread for several months. I’ll admit to being an HR long time lurker and find their fantasy amusing. I would like to start a thread to highlight some of the posts that I find entertaining. Feel free to share.

In 1899, Penn State students started Class Rush or Scraps to help initiate incoming students into college life. A Scrap was a brutal encounter between large groups of freshman and sophomores, resulting in many injuries, some even grave. Although this annual scuffle was not serious at first, while classes were small, as Penn State grew in size, this event became a major problem. Often each side had over a hundred members in the fray. In 1902, an agreement was reached between the two underclasses to dispense with what they called a barbarous rush and to substitute wrestling matches as a way of testing the relative strengths of the two classes. The first ever organized Penn State Wrestling event took place on 9/23/1902(Incidentally, my Birthday is 9/23). There were only three bouts: light, middle and heavyweight. The class that won two of the three was declared the winner. That first ever Penn State Wrestling event was won by the sophomores, 2-1.

I get that we are in the off-season. But there are lots of players entering the portal, committing to new schools, the NFL draft is this week, etc. We just have very little discussion of it here. And there are few OT threads that are interesting. Those used to be a big part of this site during the off-season. But we can't have that anymore. Too many people take offense to anything said.

I hope that the site doesn't die off but I'd have to believe the traffic is declining. Is there something we can do to grow the community here? Are there any OT discussions that are interesting that we can add that won't trigger easily offended posters? Any new thoughts or ideas to revive this site?

And for the record, the other site that bolted from here is just as stale.

so please don't get political. This is a video with the college protesters that went viral yesterday. Someone narrated it to sound like the old NFL films.

At first glance, I guess it makes sense for both sides. A&M feels disrespected after Texas got invited to the SEC, and joining the B1G would open up the Texas market for the conference. They’re also an AAU member, so they have that going for them.

At the same time, they’re a much better cultural fit in the SEC (do you really want those pep dudes coming to Happy Valley?) and have several old SWC/Big 12 rivals now on their schedule again. Would they really be willing to leave that to play Illinois, Indiana, and Rutgers?

If that happens, I’d imagine the SEC would be all-in on landing Clemson, Florida State, and North Carolina. Maybe the Big Ten invites Miami to get to an even 20 members?

3rd from the last pick in the draft. Should he have stayed another year? Seems like this happens to this program every year, somebody leaves too early?

Not sure where I saw it posted, but I saw a B&W photo of the Brooks and Taylor moment kneeling together on the mat. It was from floor level and directly behind Brooks. I’d love to purchase a copy as a gift. Has anyone seen that and, even better, know who took it? Thanks in advance!

This is madness.
